On Demand, Easy-to-Use, Cost Effective PCI Compliance
QualysGuard® PCI Compliance (PCI) provides businesses, online merchants and Member Service Providers the easiest, most cost-effective and highly-automated way to achieve compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. Known as PCI DSS, the standard provides organizations the guidance they need to ensure that credit cardholder information is kept secure from possible security breaches. QualysGuard PCI draws upon the same highly accurate scanning infrastructure and technology as Qualys' flagship solution, QualysGuard - used by thousands of organizations around the world to protect their networks from the security vulnerabilities that make attacks against networks possible.
Qualys is an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV)
Delivered as an on demand Web application, QualysGuard PCI is the most accurate, easiest to use tool for PCI compliance testing, reporting and submission. QualysGuard PCI enables merchants and Member Service Providers to promptly complete the PCI self-assessment questionnaire, and conduct network and web application security scans to efficiently identify and eliminate security vulnerabilities. The QualysGuard PCI "auto submission" feature completes the compliance process, allowing users to submit compliance status to one or multiple acquiring banks.

-
- Conveniently Complete the PCI "Self-Assessment Questionnaire" Online
- PCI DSS requires businesses to complete a PCI Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) every 12 months. The QualysGuard PCI supports SAQ v1.2 based on PCI DSS requirements. QualysGuard PCI makes it quick and painless to fill out and auto submit the questionnaire to acquiring banks.
-
- Quickly Eliminate Security Threats with Detailed Remediation Instructions
- PCI DSS also requires businesses to perform a network security scan every 90 days on all Internet facing networks and systems. To achieve compliance, businesses must identify and remediate all critical vulnerabilities detected during the scan. QualysGuard PCI automates and greatly simplifies this daunting process by providing easy-to-use reporting and identification of vulnerabilities that will cause you to fail PCI DSS. QualysGuard PCI draws upon the same highly accurate scanning infrastructure and technology as Qualys' flagship solution, QualysGuard. For each vulnerability discovered, QualysGuard PCI provides detailed instructions with links to verified patches, so that you can quickly eliminate each vulnerability.

Entering your bank and merchant IDs in your "Account Settings" activates the auto-submission feature. You can also download PCI compliance reports in PDF to submit to your acquiring bank(s) or use to assist in remediation efforts.
